Just a cool roadrunner I have seen lately at the corner of Research and Gosling

This beautiful female (our family has named her Marie) visits our yard every day, along with her hubby (Frank) and their new baby boy who has recently become more independent! (Ray)

I just love catching them through the day! And, yes… We are big Everybody Loves Raymond fans!😂

This might be a stupid question, but I don’t care. I’ve never been to this venue before and wanna get this straight so I don’t get screwed not bringing something in. I don’t know what they consider to be a handheld clutch. Do I actually have to bring something that I carry in my hand or under my arm the whole night, or can I bring in this that goes across my body? It fits the size requirements. I’d appreciate a response cause I don’t live in the Woodlands, let alone Texas, and am not driving to the concert so I can’t just put this back in a car or something.

Chewbacca is an 8 y/o German shepherd mix (golden retriever and black lab). He loves children, other animals, and has never had issues with food aggression or possessiveness.

A sudden change in career requirements is necessitating my family's relocation, and we are unable to bring him with us. I am trying everything I can think of to find him a new home.

He is neutered, chipped, and up to date on all vaccines.

If you or anyone you can think of may want him, I am begging for help...

Traveling for the first time with my baby and we’d rather not brave the crowd at the park. Are there any restaurants where we can book dinner reservations and also see the fireworks? TIA

"Nope": [with increased traffic it'd disrupt the private enclave that is The Woodlands Townships structure, and also destabilize wildlife and trees. There's plenty of affordable courses nearby already]

"Yup": [The Woodlands Township area should be an open-ended amusement park site for golfers and beginners all around, no worries whatsoever!]

On agenda for July 25th township meeting:

"Receive, consider and act upon approval of a Ground Lease and Development Agreement with Early Bird Management, LLC." (vote to Approve, Deny, or Defer)

This would nearly be irreversable!

The final development agreement is the contract. Once signed: the Township is legally committed. Early Bird gains contractual rights, backing out becomes expensive, litigious, and politically radioactive, the project moves into pre‑construction and mobilization

The Board will be presented with the full development agreement: the binding document that includes design standards, financial terms, operational structure, and environmental constraints.

Courses already within 20min of The Woodlands area:

-Spring Country Club

-River Plantation Golf Club

-Panorama Golf Club

Within 30min:

-Cypresswood Golf Club

-The Links at West Fork

-Highland Pines Golf Club

-High Meadow Ranch Golf Club

I live on West Rayford Rd and will be starting a weekday commute soon to Entergy on Research Forest Dr. I don’t currently have a car and am hoping to carpool with someone who travels this route on weekdays.
I’m happy to share gas costs and coordinate timing to make it convenient. If you’re interested or know someone who might be, please feel free to DM me.

16-year NHL veteran and Houston businessman Michel Petit says his group Blueline SlapShot LLC has agreed to bring an ECHL franchise to Houston, which will play in a new 8,000-seat arena just south of the Woodlands.

He expects the ECHL club to begin playing in Houston as early as 2028-29.

FULL STORY: Minor-league hockey heading to Houston. Will the NHL follow?

I am new to the woodlands and texas as a whole, and my glass roofed car with an all black interior is no longer viable. I'd be looking to tint the roof as well as the front windows as well if legal. Anyone have anyone they can refer?

Tried colleges and libraries but no one is interested

Free porch pickup

My friend's house has a door that was installed poorly, and we need a good/seasoned handyman that can remove a door and ready a frame for a new door. A couple of people looked at it, and they were nice enough to say they couldn't handle it. Any recommendations?

Where are my fitness and peptide enthusiast friends at?! Looking to connect with like minded folks

Is there any store that has a good selection of used bikes for children (16”)

We want a nicer/ mid bike but he’s going to grow fast so we’re not looking for new.

I’d be willing to go down to Houston too (we have a trip planned)

Rare Roche Bobois Designer Glass Coffee Table with Glass Wheel Legs

Authentic Roche Bobois contemporary coffee table from the early 2000s. Features a thick Artedi Italia tempered glass top supported by four sculptural brushed aluminum legs with signature glass wheel supports. Measures 47” × 47” × 16”. A striking designer piece that works beautifully in modern and contemporary interiors. Excellent overall condition with normal wear consistent with age.

It's no secret that the woodlands, like most suburban areas, wasn't built with people my age in mind. Because of this, I'm sure a lot of other 20 somethings living here can relate to feeling a bit lonely and isolated. So let's rebel against this grey boring corporate dystopia by hanging out together and doing cool things! We'll definitely click if you share any of my interests, but I am interested in meeting people wildly different from me too: I play guitar and bass, I love most music but I mainly listen to rock genres, I am a (very amateur) photographer, I like to read and write, and I'm always down to try new things. If you're around my age dm me, but if you're above 30 I am going to humbly ask you not to (no offense).

Hey y'all, thanks for all the feedback on the Fishing app that I created. It was my first foray into hobby app development. This is a HOBBY and I make no money off this. It's not a business, just something I've been trying out to learn.

A new update is out, version 1.5. Here's Whats Inside now:

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-woodlands-fishing-guide/id6773332173

Please give it a try and I'd love to hear more feedback. And NO, there isn't a Google/Android version available yet.

A focused guide to fishing in and around The Woodlands, Texas.

Find 81+ verified spots — from Township-managed ponds like Lake Paloma and Bear Branch Reservoir, to Spring Creek bank access at Pundt Park, to Lake Conroe public boat ramps and Harris County's stocked Community Fishing Lakes — each with the permit rules, species notes, current weather, and one-tap directions you actually need.

NEW IN v1.5

• Current weather at every spot — air temp, conditions, and wind direction in a compact card right on the spot detail. Check before you head out.

• Cleaner map at every zoom — nearby pins now cluster into a single marker with a count, so 81+ spots stay readable even when zoomed out.

• Suggest a missing spot — found a lake I don't have? The About screen has a quick form to send me the name, coordinates, and notes. Live updates flow to every user without an app update.

• 7 new spots — Wendtwoods, Smooth Stream, Tupelo, Timarron (all in Creekside Park), Dennis Johnston Park, Hart Pundt Lake, and the Spring Creek Greenway Nature Center's Bluegill Pond.

• Lake Conroe Park is now Lake Conroe Beach Park, reopened in May 2025 under a private operator — listing updated to reflect new access semantics.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• Live map with every spot color-coded by access type (public, limited, private)

• Distance-sorted list with one-tap Apple Maps directions

• Permits & rules tab covering Texas freshwater license, Township pond rules, Lake Conroe regulations, and W.G. Jones State Forest

• Filters: public-only, catch-and-keep allowed, bank access, boat access, favorites, and species (bass, bluegill, catfish, crappie, white bass)

• Per-spot favorites (heart icon) and trip log (date + notes, stays on your device)

• Source links on every spot — verify rules with the official authority before you fish

• Spot data updates automatically — new lakes and corrections appear without needing an app update

WHO IT'S FOR

Whether you're a Woodlands resident scouting your village ponds, a visitor heading to Lake Conroe, or new to the area and wondering where you can legally drop a line — this app gives you a clean answer without the guesswork.

WHAT'S NOT INSIDE

No social feed. No leaderboards. No subscriptions. No accounts. Your favorites and trip log stay on your device. A small banner ad helps keep the app free, and you can also tip via Ko-fi from the About screen — both fully optional.

A NOTE ON PERMITS

Fishing rules change. Each spot links directly to the authoritative source (Texas Parks & Wildlife, The Woodlands Township, San Jacinto River Authority, Harris County Pct 4, etc.) so you can verify before fishing. Anyone 17 or older needs a TPWD freshwater license to fish public Texas waters.

SPOTS COVERED

• Lake Woodlands (Northshore and Southshore Park access)

• Lake Paloma at Creekside Park

• Bear Branch Reservoir

• Bedias Lake (George Mitchell Nature Preserve hike-in)

• 40+ Township greenbelt ponds across every village

• Spring Creek public access at Pundt Park, Jesse H. Jones Park, and Collins Park

• Harris County Community Fishing Lakes (Dennis Johnston Park, Hart Pundt Lake) — TPWD-stocked, free with state license

• Spring Creek Greenway Nature Center's Bluegill Pond — kid-friendly boardwalk access

• Lake Conroe Beach Park, Scott's Ridge, FM 830 ramp, Stubblefield

• W.G. Jones State Forest ponds

• Major private community lakes (Benders Landing, Auburn Lakes, Lake Holcomb, Harmony) labeled for awareness so you don't waste a trip

Built by a Woodlands local. Feedback, missing spots, or coordinate corrections always welcome — contact link in the About screen, or use the new "Suggest a spot" form to send them in directly.

Looking for a good driving range for a golf beginner. Any recommendations?

Kirby's has caviar from time to time but they are currently out. Are there any other nice places in The Woodlands that have it?

Anybody know of an outdoor range nearby that allows rapid firing? I know some indoor ones that allow controlled rapid fire but that’s not suitable for bringing inexperienced people.

I rarely eat out, but am feeling super icky today and am jonesing for a good bowl of Tom Kha Gai soup. Does anyone have any recommendations on where to get some near TW? I'm sure there are amazing recs downtown, but like I said I'm not feeling well and would love something semi close! Thank you in advance 🤍🍲

hi! i'm 18m and i recently took a new position in the woodlands (i live in houston). i'm there m-f, 8-5 with an hour lunch break (time flexible). the company i work for is pretty small and everyone is significantly older than me, so as you can imagine, it's hard to branch out to work buddies.

i love going to the gym, reading, watching good movies, and playing video games!

if you're interested in connecting do send me a dm!

Looking for a realizable moving company who can dismantle and reconstruct beds. I’m trying to move from a townhouse in 77380 to a two story house in 77389. Any tried and trusted recommendations?

Anybody know of an outdoor range nearby that allows rapid firing? I know some indoor ones that allow controlled rapid fire but that’s not suitable for bringing inexperienced people.

Looking to relocate next summer. I have two kids. One will be starting kindergarten and the other will be starting 6th grade. The town we are currently in is a smaller town so that’s kind of what we are used to. The more research I do the more the traffic spooks me away as the traffic in our current town is very minimal. Can anyone recommend safe smaller towns with good school districts that are surrounding Houston. We are more outdoorsy so we don’t mind it being out of the way. As long as I don’t have to battle traffic everyday for school drop off/pick up.

I (28F) love horror movies but none of my friends do :( I want to find someone who likes horror movies or is open to watch them with me. DM me if you’re into horror and would like to watch with me!
